Do I Need to Be a Nordstrom Member to Shop the 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?
No — you do not need to be a Nordstrom member in order to take advantage of the exciting Nordstrom Anniversary Sale deals on Monday, July 15. However, Nordstrom cardholders will get to savor exclusive perks — including advanced access to items that may sell out of stock before the public is able to shop.
You can sign up to be a Nordstrom cardmember ahead of the sale — which automatically grants you Influencer status — and a two-day head start to the sale on Wednesday, July 10. Not only will you be able to shop rare steals before the general public, a membership offers the opportunity to earn store points on purchases, including orders placed during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Plus, you can enjoy additional perks, like free alterations and access to double point shopping events.
To apply for a Nordstrom credit card, simply follow the instructions at Nordstrom.com and wait to be approved. Depending on your qualification, shoppers may be considered for a Visa Signature or Visa Platinum card, while those who don’t qualify may receive a Nordstrom retail credit card. Since there are likely many Nordstrom shoppers rushing to get approved ahead of the 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, we recommended submitting an application as soon as possible so you can relish in VIP access to all the deals.
What Types of Fashion and Beauty Deals Are Included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?
While we all patiently await the sale to kick off, you can browse the early preview page in the meantime to get a taste of what beauty and fashion deals to expect during the 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
In the beauty department, you can look forward to tons of markdowns on hair styling tools from brands like Drybar, T3, and Ghd, along with face sunscreen sets from Supergoop! and Coola, editor-loved St. Tropez tanners, Pmd facial tools, and professional makeup brush sets. On the fashion front, we’re seeing steals across every category, including 30 percent off on Nike and Adidas workout clothing, $20 price drops on Wacoal t-shirt bras, deals on summer dresses from Free People and Madewell, and rare savings that scale over $100 across jewelry, designer sunglasses, and handbags. As exciting as all that sounds, there may be even more deals in Nordstrom’s pipeline to be revealed when the deals officially drop.
Last year, the retailer ushered in a slew of new brands to the sale event for the first time ever, including Dyson hair tools, Larroudé sandals, Allbirds sneakers, editor-loved Mansur Gavriel handbags, and dozens more, so we’re on the edge of our seats to see which trending brands will be on sale for 2024. We have our fingers crossed that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale in 2024 will be just as impressive as last year, because it was chock full of irresistible price drops from prestige beauty brands like Charlotte Tilbury’s best lipsticks, Clé de Peau and Augustinus Bader skin care sets, Dior makeup bags, Anastasia Beverly Hills eyebrow pencils, and even the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer. Plus, there were steals on fragrance gift sets from Gucci, Diptyque, and Tory Burch, along with price drops on premium facial tools from NuFace.
We stocked up on everything from chic shoulder bags from Coach and Kate Spade to sculpting Skims shapewear last year. Hopefully the sale will be bigger and better this year, because there were also discounts on essential Rag & Bone and Levi’s women’s jeans and rare steals on cult-favorite activewear brands like Alo Yoga and Outdoor Voices. We even saw steep price drops on Ray-Ban and Prada sunglasses, plus wedding season-ready Loeffler Randall heels at a whopping 40 percent off. Whether you’re stocking up your summer wardrobe ahead of vacay or looking to hit refresh on your beauty regimen, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale will be your only chance all year to snag sales on the retailer’s wide assortment of premium brands.
